Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Language: English. About The Book: The "Flora of British India" is a project that provides concise descriptions of flowering plants and ferns in British territories in India, covering regions like Kashmir and Western Tibet. Originally, it was planned to include Afghanistan and Beluchistan, but this idea was abandoned due to the availability of other botanical resources. The work recognizes the immense complexity of British Indian botany, spanning various climates and elevations, making it impossible to document all plant species comprehensively. Much of the flora remains undescribed or inadequately documented. This Flora serves as a handbook and a stepping stone for more extensive future works, with contributions from various botanists. Citations and references are kept succinct, and collections are primarily based on Wallich's for practicality. The geographical regions mentioned align with recognized territorial divisions of India and botanical regions. The compilation consists of seven volumes. About The Author: Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817-1911) was a prominent 19th-century British botanist and explorer, known for founding geographical botany and being a close friend of Charles Darwin. He served as director of the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, for two decades, succeeding his father, William Jackson Hooker. He authored the monumental "Flora of British India" and received prestigious British science honors. Hooker's early exploration took place during James Clark Ross's expedition, where he made significant botanical collections across various locations, including Antarctica. His friendship with Governor Richard Clement Moody on the Falkland Islands allowed him to access a valuable personal library. The Ross expedition confirmed the existence of the southern continent and mapped its coastline.
